3.15.1 Discrete Materials
The discrete_material section defines a material that can be assigned to a discrete element set. The id attribute defines the material ID and the type attribute defines the material type. The following types are currently supported.
Type | Description |
linear spring | spring that has a linear force-displacement relation |
nonlinear spring | user defines the force-displacement relation |
Hill | discrete material that defines a Hill-type muscle model |
